Korea Tourism
Organization and Korea
Railroad (KORAIL) are about to launch the 'Rail City Tour' for
foreign visitors to travel around Korea easily. Prior to the actual
operation, they are recruiting a group of foreign participants for a
one-day rail tour experience.
In order to better understand the needs of foreign travelers, a
simple survey will be gathered from the participants after the ‘Rail
City Tour’ to Jeolla province. Their feedback and opinion will serve to
help identify rooms for improvements on the overall tour experience for
foreigners.
There are two courses for the ‘Jeolla-do Rail City Tour’ namely
Jeonbuk Circulation Tour (Iksan-Gochang Course) and Namdo Circulation
Tour (Damyang-Gokseong Course). A total of 80 participants will be
selected for each course and the participation fee is 10,000 won per
person. For interested participants, detailed information on
application and payment are available on the official homepage.
